Hello, I am new here and this is my first post. To be quite honest I am on these forums purely for recommendation related to me selling the many knives and hatchets I recently inherited. Some are brand new, some barely used and some quite extensively used. I know nothing about knives and do not intend to keep any of them. I was wondering if It would be possible to get some advice as to how much I could sell them each individually or all together and what would be the quickest and easiest way to do so such as craigslist, eBay, etc. I can provide pictures of them all separately (but there are a lot) but for now, I will post pictures will everything in it. Thank you for any help or insight you might have for me.

Unfortunately, as a registered member, you are not allowed to ask about value/pricing; so we cannot respond to that portion of your post. That acknowledged, I don't see anything that I recognize as particularly valuable...but it is difficult to identify some of the fixed blades with them sheathed.

mostly low-brow stuff, IMO...didn't catch my fancy on any of them.
But the "bay" reco seems good, and you can make some bux.
 
Looks like a lot from the old knife shopping network. eBay is likely the best bet.
 
Buy a Gold membership here- It's $30. Ask what they're worth and sell what you can here since there's no more fees. Search Sold Listings on eBay, consider your listing fees (10%), PayPal fees (3%) and shipping costs then sell the remaining knives there.

If the knives are inexpensive group several into lots to reduce the added shipping cost.
 
Not really good place to ask such questions :^)
It's $500+ blade forum

Hello and welcome to BladeForums. You’ve got a few nice blades in there.

In my best guess you could sell the lot for a couple hundred bucks or make a bit more separating them out.

If you are inclined to ask about individual values and want to sell them here you would need membership.

Good luck!
 
Hello! As other members have noted, these appear to be mostly value-based knives. If you wanted to determine the specific value of each, going to Amazon or eBay 'sold' listing search and searching for the specific name printed on the knife and the type of knife (e.g., "MTech fixed blade knife" or "Buck fixed blade knife") can yield exact prices when you find the matching model. That said, with the exception of perhaps the Buck, Kershaw, and SOG models, I would also recommend selling most of these in lots of perhaps 5 to 10 knives, and an auction site like eBay would probably be the best for this in my opinion.

We were all hoping to give you better news. I for one would have loved to see a horde of hi end vintage one of a kind knives. Or vintage military stuff.

But it is what it is.

You came to the right place to ask anyway. Again best of luck.
 
You would be better off selling individually as a lot people might only want 1 of them not all. Id list em 9.99 each no reserve cause since they cost you nothing you have nothing to lose....
 
Different kind of recommendation:
Since these were inherited and aren’t worth a ton of money, consider keeping a few and trying them out in the kitchen/yard/woods. You may discover you actually like sharp things (like all of us here), and might even develop a closer connection to your deceased relative...
